CVE-2014-3616: Debian Linux

Medium severity, CVSS 4.3. EPSS: 5.7% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

nginx 0.5.6 through 1.7.4, when using the same shared ssl_session_cache or ssl_session_ticket_key for multiple servers, can reuse a cached SSL session for an unrelated context, which allows remote attackers with certain privileges to conduct "virtual host confusion" attacks.

Affected products

• Debian Debian Linux: version 7.0 only; version 8.0 only
• F5 Nginx: from 0.5.6, before 1.6.2 (fixed in 1.6.2); from 1.7.0, before 1.7.5 (fixed in 1.7.5)
